TLDR - Affordably priced. Good portion. Reasonable taste…read more There were so many Korean restaurants on Bathhurst and Bloor that were highly ranked on Yelp that we decided to choose one based on the second most reliable pointer - there were many Koreans dining inside. Hence we entered Jin Dai Lae. Good decision (yes, I am patting my back). Entree pricing was $3 to $4 lower than Markham/Richmond Hill. Portion was so big that you would be full, and might have to doggy bag. Most importantly, food tasted good. Short ribs stew had many pieces of beef. Squids hot plate was saucy. It wasn't too spicy, so it was good for me (menu didn't have a chilli sign either). For people who like it hot, you can ask for some chilli sauce.

We go here every year as part of the après for our conference and everyone loves it…read more One gal who was here from Germany last year went here both nights before the conference date and was hugging the waitress when she sat down. (And I thought I was a local.) Great food and great prices. Will be back!

we were expecting a better experience. the food just happened to be ok or not great. came on a…read morefriday night and had a short wait for 2 people walk in. got seated in the covered patio. it was kind of cold but we soldiered through it despite there being heating lamps. we ordered: rib eye (i think thats the large uncut piece of meat) it was super chewy, barely inedible. no salt to be found for seasoning. dips offered were ok. short rib - better than rib eye but just ok pork belly - most enjoyable cut. the corn cheese, soup, and pork belly were the most enjoyable things offered during this visit. would rather have cold kimchi. egg was alright. half the banchans were not quite for our palate but we picked at them anyway. overall it was ok. maybe we just didnt order the right cuts.

Came for dinner at around ~6 on a weeknight and was able to quickly snag a free table! Food was…read morepretty good and I think they do a great fusion menu of Japanese / Mexican, offering mains like sushi and tacos. For starters, we had the Takoyaki, followed by mains of the Red Dragon Roll and Shrimp Tacos. The fish tasted fresh and we liked the seasoning on the shrimp! Lots of other options depending on the type of roll you may want and various proteins for your tacos. The food came out quickly and I love how unique the interior is, with various popular anime posters on the walls throughout the restaurant. I'd come back here for a quick bite - heads up though, they don't do reservations! It got busy here by ~7 and I've seen lines out the door before walking past on the weekend.

Korean Grill House chain has existed for a long time. I would recommend going for the weekday lunch…read morespecial which is $8 and includes a bento box (protein choice of chicken/pork/beef +$2), miso soup, and pop. Note that recently the pop has been replaced by "free jasmine tea", which is what they normally served anyways even with the pop. It was a better deal when the pop was included! Service is a little slow as they are normally short staffed. For the lunch special, they automatically add a service charge on the bill. I am not sure if they do it for the all-you-can-eat option but I would assume so.

The chicken was crispy and so juicy! The bowls were huge and took 2 of us to finish one! The tteokbokki is also a must try! It's very spicy but that's perfect for me! It was packed with fish cakes too! They also have trendy drinks that added a nice touch to our meal.

Chibap is a relatively new spot in Downtown along Queen and Spadina. Despite so much food in the…read morearea, there wasn't much Korean fried chicken options and glad there's finally a spot now to go to whenever I'm in the area. I ordered takeout the yangyeom chicken and octopus balls. The chicken came as boneless by default. The portions were really amazing for what you pay for and the quality was good. The chicken was extra crispy and the sauce was a perfect blend of sweet and mild spice. The octopus balls were a great small appetizer along with the chicken. Overall, a hidden gem in the Downtown area and definitely worth the visit!

We were craving Korean food during our trip to Toronto and found this place thanks to Yelp…read more It's a popular spot with a wait even on a weeknight, but fortunately it wasn't too long, about 15 minutes or so. We ordered the spicy squid with rice and combination soon tofu with hot stone pot rice. The spicy squid was yummy, flavorful, and hit the spot. The soon tofu was a bit on the bland side compared with the Korean tofu soups I'm used to in the L.A. area. They include banchan with the food. There was kimchi, bean sprouts, and beans. Service was attentive and very friendly. The restaurant is on the smaller side, maybe 10 or so tables. Overall it was a good experience and I liked the food, but would like to try other Korean restaurants in the Toronto area.
